I am starting a new painting and will be posting the various stages of development. If you find this interesting let me know!
I have stretched my watercolour paper on a piece of plywood and stapled it around the perimeter. I have added an edge of masking tape. This gives me a white edge when I am done and keeps the board from getting covered in paint.
This is a rural setting with a barn and silo. I have started with a loose wash of cobalt blue and cerulean for the sky and yellow and sienna with a bit of cobalt for the foreground. Once dry I will develop the sky and foreground further.
